As a marathon medical director described the counter-intuitive and under-publicized risk in 2005: 'There are no reported cases of dehydration causing death in the history of world running, but there are plenty of cases of people dying of hyponatremia.' The second major risk arises from imbalanced fluid or electrolyte levels, particularly hyponatremia (sodium deficiency, overhydration, or water intoxication).

In 2016, a systematic medical review found that the risk of sudden cardiac death during or immediately after a marathon was between 0.6 and 1.9 deaths per 100,000 participants, varying across the specific studies and the methods used, and not controlling for age or gender.
